I really enjoyed 'Someone Else's End'. I liked the writer's use of humour, especially with Rowan's character. Magic was used well too. There was nothing I disliked about the book, so I rated the book 4 out of 4.

The entry of the Emeperor of Lullabies was the entry of the villain we've all been waiting for. The book was an exciting read with Meldorath tearing through the Emperor's army. I definitely recommend this book to all the series mongers and thriller fanatics out there.

I liked this book and I’ve rated this 4 out of 4 stars. I enjoyed the twists and turns that this book has. It kept me hooked till the end. The best part is that there is no unnecessary exaggeration of the scenes. So I wasn’t bored at any point. Overall, I had a great time reading this one.

My rating for this book was 4 out of 4 stars, it was such a page-turner! :) I loved the dynamics, all the action, and the fighting rhinos! The new mythology comes to play in this book, and I definitely recommend to read it to all horror/fantasy/csi-fi lovers :)

Latest Review: We are Voulhire: A New Arrival under Great Skies by Matthew Tysz

Post by a_r_egerton »

I'm afraid this was my least favorite book in the series thus far, and I gave it two out of four stars, with a star docked for errors. It was also around this time that I began to lose patience with Tysz for his failure to introduce any prominent female characters. There were two characters, including Rowan's mother, who had seemed promising, but they both vanished after the Empreror of Lullabies attacked Soulhire.

I noted all three books involved villains attacking a city: Riva Rohavi attacked Hillport in the first book; demons went rampaging throughout Virko in the second book, and the Emperor of Lullabies sicced his monsters on Soulhire and killed King Wilhelm. I was also disappointed that Galen and Co. didn't get to explore Soulhire a bit more before the monsters attacked.

On the other hand, I did like Melodorath, for he seems to be the most cunning of the antagonists. While the others rely on chaos and brute force, he accumulates resources and allies. By now, he's become the Eiodi (Pope) and he's put together a team of advisors.

I love the political aspect, the fight scenes and comic relief. It's quite interesting. Though I rate this book 4 out of 4, I don't recommend that you start from this book. Read the previous books.

I rated it 4 out of 4, of course. I loved this book, it was my favorite so far. The characters became more real, and we discover more about their background.

The book was full of errors though I rated it 4 out of 4stars. I loved the mixture of first person and third person that was used.
The characterization was perfect and I loved Galen even more in this book, though he did not explore Voulhire more than I expected I wish he could have killed the monster.

'Someone Else's End' is book written by Tysz.He included magic in his story.He was very humoureous especially with Rowan's character.This made the book more interesting.
I loved his characterization,i found it to be perfect.The backgrounds of the characters were also discussed and the characters were so real.
However,Tysz did not introduce any prominent female characters. Rowan's mother,seemed promising but the author did not give her a bigger role to play in the book.This really disappointed me.
I gave the book three stars out of four.

Someone Else's End piqued my interest right from the very first page. The narration of the Emperor of Lullaby entering Meldorath's dream was an epic intro. Then the theme and story plot played out well. I never expected Nartik's coronation though. I rated it a 3 out of 4 because the point of view narratives were quite confusing.

This book is my best so far in the series. I like that Galen, Rowan, and Demetrius are getting along quite well. My favourite part was when Medorath intervened during the attack on Voulhire. I rate this book a 4 out of 4 stars.
